What is collected, how it works and because it affects Galaxy users
Collection (Collections) of Samsung was born with the aim of being a sort of Augmented memory for the phone. It is not limited to saving images or texts, but allows you to collect screenshots, links and multimedia content in a single organized space. The difference compared to the simple gallery or favorites lies in integration with artificial intelligence: the app is able to Create automatic summary summariessimplifying subsequent research.
At the moment some functions are still immature. The option of Intelligent Drag and Dropwhich should allow you to drag content directly into the app, it is not active in the Build available outside China. The same goes for the summaries IA, which still appear limited. However, thanks to sharing through the system share sheet, it is already possible to add compatible information within collections.
The app is located in the menu Advanced settings functions And, once activated, it requires access to multimedia file access and the list of apps. To speed up the use, you can add an icon dedicated to the home or to the quick sharing screen.
The global debut, albeit unofficiallooks like a logical step in the Samsung strategy. The South Korean company is pushing more and more onIntegration of IA tools Inside the One UI, and Collection (Collections) could become a central piece in this ecosystem. The possibility of looking for information between screenshots and apps with a semantic approach rather than only visual, anticipates a future in which the smartphone will not only be an passive archive, but an active assistant capable of reorganizing and making our daily data usable.
If Google with Pixel Screenshots had traced the road, Samsung seems ready to play the card of a more transversal platform, available on a decidedly higher devices. All that remains is to wait for an official release all over the world to understand if this app will become a daily companion for millions of users Galaxy.
